Also the anime itself since it keeps the focus on Kyon's view of things instead of just being a 50/50 shipping comedy video. Though pretty much all plot-altering AMVs can be seen as parody AMVs in some way IMO.

Just out of curiosity...what exactly is this parodying?The original song meaning and its lyrics mostly.

"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

so I'm going through these recomendations and... what do these videos really have in common?? I swear, unclear categories don't need to be made clear with explanation and guidelines, they need to be taken out. It's really not hard, take it out. Every one of these videos fit into other basic categories thus are fodder for 'why did this video win SEVEN AWARDS' drama. TAKE IT OUT!!!
